Sea Cliff Manor was everything we could have dreamed of and more this past weekend for wedding. From the moment we first toured with Jeff, we felt so incredibly cared for, and we truly could not have asked for a more perfect place to celebrate our wedding. A very special thank you to Ian, the maître d’ , who was truly exceptional. From helping organize and coordinate everything behind the scenes to making sure the entire evening flowed seamlessly, he was there every step of the way. He was incredibly helpful, thoughtful, responsive, and proactive, and we always felt like we were in the best hands. He somehow managed to keep track of every detail while also making us feel like we were his only priority. Ian was also wonderful with our guests. He was warm, attentive, and incredibly accommodating, and we heard so many positive comments about how helpful and welcoming he was throughout the evening. He made sure everyone was taken care of and helped create such a wonderful atmosphere for our friends and family. Knowing Ian was there managing everything allowed us to relax, be present, and truly enjoy our wedding instead of worrying about all the details. We are so grateful for everything he did for us to make the night run so smoothly. And a huge thank you to Judy who was an absolutely amazing bridal attendant. She went above and beyond for me throughout the day, making sure I was fed and hydrated, helping me with my dress and constantly checking in to see what I needed. She even saved the day when my veil broke by sewing it back onto the comb and placing it for me. Those little moments of care and thoughtfulness meant more than she probably realizes, and I am so grateful I had her by my side. Our guests have not stopped raving about the wedding. Everyone was blown away by the beautiful cocktail hour, the incredible food, and the venue itself. We heard so many wonderful comments throughout the night and in the days afterward about how beautiful and memorable everything was. We have been told numerous times it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to!! Most of all, thank you all for making us feel so special. Your entire team helped create a day that felt effortless, beautiful, and truly ours. We will always look back on our wedding at Sea Cliff Manor with so much happiness and gratitude, and we are incredibly thankful to everyone who played a part in making it the wedding of our dreams. If you’re on the fence, you 100000% should book SCM for your wedding or event!

My son and daughter-in-law were married at Seacliff Manor this past Sunday. If I could give 10 stars, I would. Josh was amazing and made sure every little need was met. The weather did not cooperate and we weren’t sure if we would be inside or out until the last moment. They were setup for the wedding for both and were able to pivot at the last minute. It was a gorgeous venue with amazing views! 10 out of 10!

The absolute best experience a bride and groom could ask for at Sea Cliff Manor! The entire venue and property are absolutely stunning. My husband and I got married on July 2, 2026 and our vision was to have a beautiful, sunny summer wedding. Sea Cliff Manor made that dream come true. The breathtaking lake views during our ceremony and cocktail hour created the perfect backdrop for our special day. I could go on and on about the food! We received countless compliments from our guests about both the food and the open bar. During cocktail hour, there was such an incredible variety of cuisine that our guests joked they had traveled around the world without ever leaving the venue. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Our bridal attendant, Danielle, was nothing short of amazing. She took exceptional care of both my husband and me throughout the entire day. We truly didn't have to lift a finger because she was always one step ahead, anticipating our every need. She even made sure our 5-year-old and 7-month-old were well taken care of, which gave us so much peace of mind. A special thank you to Ian, our maître d'/host, who kept everything running seamlessly. He ensured the entire event stayed on schedule and handled every detail behind the scenes so we could simply enjoy our wedding day without worrying about a thing. If you're looking for the perfect venue for your wedding, quinceañera, bat mitzvah, or any other special celebration, I cannot recommend Sea Cliff Manor enough. The exceptional service, breathtaking scenery, incredible food, and attention to detail made our day unforgettable. Every penny was worth it, and I would choose Sea Cliff Manor all over again!

Sea Cliff Manor was an absolute dream. Ian the maitre d' was phenomenal—direct, calm, and encouraging. He made everything seamless. We rehearsed five minutes before walking down the aisle and it still executed flawlessly. He was cueing everyone and it just flowed. The team was responsive by email, the bridal attendant was wonderful, the waterfront at sunset is magical, and it photographed beautifully. Now the food was a standout, best filet mignon I've ever had, and afterwards they even packed our décor for us to pick up the next day. They allowed us entry to the bridal suites at noon. They had cold waters, beer, wine, champagne and got my husband's crew whiskey for their suite. We also had fresh charcuterie boards. The bridal attendant made us an assortment of food during cocktail hour so we didnt have to go to the stations ourselves. They were also asking us if we wanted drinks at every moment. Ian saw that our tartufo had melted by the time we sat for dessert and he grabbed frozen ones for us! They let us borrow their easel stand, their table for the ceremony, they have beautiful linens and tablewear. The dance floor is HUGE. Our guests are still raving about the venue and food. Overall amazing venue and experience. We couldn't recommend it more.

We just had our daughter’s wedding at Sea Cliff Manor - It was perfect! When we initially visited SCM, we hit it off with Nick who is the owner - He genuinely cares about his clients and knows how important the venue is to someone’s wedding. We had visited quite a few venues, from local on Long Island, to NYC, to farms upstate - SCM was head and shoulders above the rest. During the months leading up to the wedding, we worked closely with Ian who is the wonderful events manager. Worked is actually too strong a word as Ian made everything so easy for us. The venue itself is stunning! Overlooking the Long Island Sound with beautiful grounds and views that are awe-inspiring. The Bridal Suite (one for the bride and her part of the wedding party and one for the groom and his) was spectacular and available for the whole day. Judy was our daughter’s bridal attendant and she was there all day and evening attending to the bride and later to the bride and groom - a really nice touch. The ceremony was outdoors at SCM on a beautiful late spring day. As our guests arrived they were welcomed with a glass of champagne and shown their seats for the ceremony. The ceremony was incredible, on manicured grounds looking over the Long Island Sound and it everything our daughter dreamed it would be. Cocktail hour followed and it was also outside on the grounds overlooking the water. A note about the servers and the staff - Throughout the wedding, to an individual they were kind, attentive and dedicated to making the wedding perfect. The food was delicious and plentiful, the service impeccable and with many thanks to Ian, the evening flowed so smoothly. We had 160 guests and the seating was ideal. The dance floor was huge and with two entrances from the seating area the floor never felt crowded even with most people were dancing. The speakeasy was unique and people loved it! So many of our family and friends told us this was the best wedding they had ever attended and we agree! Sea Cliff Manor played a huge role in making our daughter and son-in-law’s day so wonderful. Our gratitude to Nick, Ian, Judy and the entire SCM staff - Thank You!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ — A Dream Venue Made Perfect by an Exceptional Team Our love for Seacliff Manor started before we ever said “yes” to the venue — it started the moment we walked through the door two years ago. From our very first meeting with Nick, we felt completely at home. His warmth and genuine care for us as a couple made the decision easy. We were literally calling to put down a deposit before we even pulled out of the parking lot. As our wedding day drew closer, Ian became our go-to throughout the planning process. As a bride with what felt like a million questions, I can’t tell you how much it meant to receive responses that were not only prompt but thorough and thoughtful every single time. He never made me feel like I was asking too much. At our final pre-wedding meeting, Ian created a detailed timeline mapping out every moment of our big day — and I mean every moment. On the day itself, he ran the entire event to the minute. His staff was incredible, the venue was absolutely stunning, and the food had every single guest raving. We had a jam-packed day with a lot of moving pieces, and Ian exceeded every expectation we had. If you’re a couple looking for a venue where you will feel genuinely cared for from the first tour to the last dance — look no further. Seacliff Manor is it.
